Self Analysis
1. I think that my road varies in color and textures because my life and its expectations are ever-changing. It's firm, but I am unsure/untrusting how to approach it.
2. The water is more frightening than the road because it's less predictable. Yet, I trust my capabilities to...
This is an imaginery journey down a road. Take in the sights, sounds and colours, just like a video camera recording all that lies surrounding you. Survey the scene, noticing whatis far off in the distance, the background surrounds, the weather, the season and a total image of what you view...
Sometimes your job is a big part of your life and what you identify with---it's who you are...especially if it's a meaningful occupation you enjoy. You're experiencing a significant loss. It sounds as though you've immersed yourself in your work, have been successful, and now you've been thrown...
Well, Dr. Roerich revealed the real me. Earlier today he conducted the mental imagery interview. As a participant, I thought it went exceptionally well. Afterward I felt as though I'd indeed completed an important part of a journey. Parts of it seemed so real. I gained greater insight into...
I really want to participate...just nervous
I feel like "WOW...I am participating in the mental imagery study this weekend with Dr. Roerich!" I am becoming more and more anxious as the study approaches. Why? Well,on the one hand, I'm anxious to participate and can't wait to get the ball...
Do any of you ever begin to post new threads and/or respond to posts and then erase/delete them before you press "submit"? I do it all the time. If there's anywhere that I should feel appreciation, understanding, welcome and support, it's here. I hope you do, too.
Sometimes I think I'm getting lost within myself and I don't want to be a part of the real world around me. Everything seems to set me off. I'm very focused and also very distractable. The smallest interruption may set me off and I feel out of control. I lash out at those around me and they...
Welcome to the forum, Kitty. I, too, am a very private person. Family and friends are totally unaware of all that is inside and why I'm so quiet. Yes, you are OK and it will help when you're part of a group that understands and supports one another, listens, and doesn't treat you like you're...
I think therapy may be a waste of time for me because every time I go, I have a flicker of hope, that I'll get some small revelation any yet, almost every time I leave, I am so furious at myself for not being able to express myself and explain how I'm feeling or what my issues are. I really...
My husband is very supportive and I'm grateful. However, when things continuously haunt my thoughts and I try to talk to him, he says, "those things are in the past and there's nothing you can do to change them." I think he's correct, but I can't make the repetitive thoughts stop.
Thanks for your support, Dave and I hope that you, too, are able to find some of the answers that you need to help you become stronger and cope each day.
Thanks Claire. I will try to lower my expectations a little and be more open. My husband recently went to a therapy session with me to ask what he could do at home to help me. This was very encouraging, too.
